Hello,
Is there a standard format for quoting examples of commands to be
entered by the user?
I've given the following example commands:
cd /tmp
wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static
cd /opt
tar xjvf /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2
rm /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2
ln -s

I think people's opinions will split on this. When the above change

I guess I'll have to start following IRC.
I tend to agree that we want to be sure users do not just copy the

The main problem with copy and paste, I think, is that usually a
carriage return is automatically added at the end, and so the command is
immediately executed. Forcing users to copy and paste individual bits
does nothing to prevent this.
Yes,
